Free silver address in Boston by Senators and General Warner
In Faneuil Hall Boston last night free silver advocates heard Senator Stewart of Nevada and General Warner of Ohio rail against gold. The meeting, led by E M White, praised by 600 attendees, examined the 1873 act, money supply, and the parity of silver and gold. Stewart defended miners and described losses from silver discount, while Warner challenged claims that silver coinage would wreck the economy, arguing the silver dollar remains valuable in industry and trade.

Infringement suit over water closet patent fails
The United States Circuit Court filed an opinion in William Smith v John Pickering Putnam. The defense hinges on a missing jet element in the accused device. Since a patent’s claims cover an entire combination, partial use does not constitute infringement, and the bill is dismissed. The court notes no session due to Chief Justice Morton’s funeral.
